Life on the Thames.

Correspondence New fsrk World.
It is one of the sights of England to
see this merry, free, picturesque life
on the river. These bright wholesome
looking young fellows and these gaily-
dressed young ladies are not the same
people you would meet in a conven-
tiOnal way. 1t is only out of doors
that the English people appear easy.
or where they appear to take any
pleasure in life. In doors they are
solemn, reserved stiff and awkward.
The households on the river are in
teresting features. These are great
broad barges with real houses built
upon them. These houses will have
promenade decks, protected by red,
blue or white awnings, according to the
fancy of the owner. People who en-
gage these households, which are
comfortably fitted up, often live upon
the river for days and weeks at time.
Sometimes they will be free from their
moorings and put in the tow of some
of the steam launches that run up and
down the river. / saw one house
boat which is worth description. It
was long, broad and roomy. The
house built upon it was of usual height.
Over the back was stretched a snowy
white awning. The boat and house
we're painted snowy white. picked our
in gold. Along the line of the upper
deck were great masses of flowers. In
front there were great pots of crimson
and purple flowers. Under the awn-
ing were rugs and easy chairs. In the
front of the boat, on the lower deck,
was square, covered entrance to the
house. In this space were seated four
or five handsome young ladies, dressed
in white, light pink, and heliotrope
dresses, making delicate combinations
against the light background of the
house. Sitting in front of them at
their feet, upon a soft pile Of rugs,
was a young, athletic, brown, regular
featured ,clean-looking young English
man, playing with great spirits upon
banjo. On the upper deck there
were other picturesque groups. From
the windows streamed upon the breeze
pink silken curtains. This respondent
house-boat, loaded with youth and
beauty, was in the tow of fancifuf,
sharp-lined steam launch, which pro-
tected by the red awning, carried also
its gay party. From behind the house
boat there were numerous shells and
small barges, also in tow, for it is an
unwritten law of the river that when
ever an oarsman asks for a tow from
the happy possessors of steam power
that favor is never to be refused.

THE FAIR ENDED.
Yesterday The Last Day at the
Best Fair Ever Held
i'm Sedalia.
A Day of Interest to the Large
CrOwd-The Races-Notes
of Interest.

Yesterday closed the best fair Sedalia
ever had and the thousands that attended
it will not do otherwise than coincide with
the BAZoo In making the statement.
Why? Because the association worked
Increasingly from the start to that end and
accomplished it They are to be praised
In the highest measure for their success in
having the best races; the best display of
stock; the best exhibit of machinery; the
best display of farm products; the best
display of merchandise, and everything one
could think of as the best and most
attractive exhibition ever arranged upon
the fair grounds. Monday was, perhaps,
but the worst day that being children's day,
for them il was the best day of the week (.
The remaining days of the week were all
crowned with success, especially Thursday,
when at least $1,000 people thronged the
grounds making it a difficulty for one to
find their way through the surging mass of
humanity. 1t has been a great week for
the country people who enjoy the sights of
a fair far more, il seems, than the city
merchant or youth. in lieu of the
fact that most everything exhibited
outside of an art gallery is
of more or less benefit to them. They enjoy
the corn, the pumpkins, squashes, vegetables
of every kind and description the horse,
the sheep, hogs, cattle, and various other
items that go to make the fair thing of
interest to the farmer. The fair has closed
and the BAzoo is proud with the citizens of
Sedalia that it was grand SUCCESS. Yes
terday morning a committee of three was
appointed to circulate among the business
men and persuade them to close their
places of business in the afternoon. The
result was that a greater portion of the
business houses were closed
and the merchants and clerks
took another half day vacation TO attend
the fair. As will be seen the races were in
teresting and the closing day was one be
remembered by all. Below will be found
an accurate description of yesterdays pro-
ceedings.

The Surplus Must Go.
Jacksonville, Fir, News.

Jacksonville, Fir, News.
The people who are the hewers of
wood and the drawers of water are
told that our very simple tariff system
is too intricate for their stupid intel
lects to comprehend, so that they
have nothing to do but lie still and
permit the fleece to be shorn. But
the question of tax reduction is up
and will down at no mans bidding.
The people will press the issue and
keep it uppermost. The ballot is the
weapon of free men, and democracy
itself, entrenched as it is in the hearts
of the great majority, will longer
ignore this issue of overtaxation at its
peril.

MISS CoUZINs' ADDRESS


A large crowd assembled in the grand
stand to day to listen to the address of
Miss Phoebe w. Couz ms, the eloquent lady
attorney of st. Louis and daughter OF
United States Marshal Couzins, the man
who has held his place under Democratic
rule despite of the fact that he is a
pronounced Republican. Miss Couzins
was introduced to the audience BY
Rev. DR.. Edmonson who stated briefly that
she would address the people on the sub
ject Of cooperation farming as applied
more particularly to women and that
the intellectual treat in store for the
people was due to the excellent manner
in which the fair management had looked
after the enjoyment of the visitors. Miss
Couzins was warmly greeted and began by
saying she was aware of the task that one
like herself "born and raised in the pre-
cincts of q large city had undertaken,
but she did not propose to NEEDLE with the
methods Of fertilizing the soil or the best
methods of setting a hen or break
ing colts; she merely wished as one
would look through telescope
instrument, to speak of the things, or
abuses which she had noted in the lives of
farmers wives particularly, and perhaps
suggest something that would Tighten their
complicated labors, help to cheerful sur
roundings and promote social development.
She then spoke of the improved machinery
for the male part of farm life and the
zeal with which a woman is commended
for rising before The dawn, etc and thought
that ii wa because of the narrow

Immediately taking the lead followed by
"Red Rover" and "Willie F." in the order

2:323.
